1810 1/2 River Rd, Missoula, MT 59801

Description

If you've been searching for a property where you can build, restore, fabricate, collect, or finally have room for every project you've dreamed about, 1810 1/2 River Road deserves your attention.
The centerpiece is an approx 4,000-square-foot, two-level shop that's increasingly hard to find in Missoula. With 200-amp electrical service, natural gas, oversized bay doors, and room that has previously accommodated multiple vehicles, it's built for serious work and serious hobbies. Whether you're restoring classic cars, welding, woodworking, running a fabrication business, storing recreational equipment, or simply want a workshop most people only imagine, this space is ready for it. The upper level has even generated rental income in the past, adding flexibility for future owners.
The home itself is a thoughtfully rebuilt historic barn, renovated from the subfloor up in 2006 with updated plumbing, wiring, insulation, flooring, and roof. It offers the warmth and character of an older structure with the confidence of modern systems already in place. A near-new whole-house generator, on-demand water heater, city sewer, shared well, natural gas, and irrigated acreage mean the infrastructure is already here. You can spend your time creating instead of catching up on deferred maintenance.
Outside, 0.74 irrigated acres provide room to garden, grow, keep animals, park trailers, or simply enjoy having elbow room without giving up convenient access to Missoula. Irrigation water has historically been dependable throughout the season, making the property especially attractive for hobby farming, market gardens, or anyone who values productive ground. An existing permit for an approximately 200-square-foot addition also gives the next owner an opportunity to expand the living space if desired. This is a property that rewards imagination. Mechanics see a dream shop. Car collectors see protected storage. Artists and makers see studio space. Outdoor enthusiasts see room for every toy, trailer, and adventure. Buyers looking for a conventional house may scroll past, but the right buyer will recognize just how difficult it is to find this combination of usable land, modern utilities, and commercial-scale workspace in one package.
The photos will show you the buildings. They can't fully convey the scale of the shop until you're standing beneath the bay doors or the possibilities that come with seeing nearly 6,000 square feet of workspace in person. If you've been waiting for a property that fits the way you actually live and work, not just the number of bedrooms on paper, this is one you'll want to experience for yourself.
